Post pics of aftermarket wheels on 97-03 trucks

Hello all, I would like to see pics of 97-03 trucks with aftermarket wheels to help me make a decision on what I want on my SCREW. Who knows, some of you might even convince me to go lifted! haha

Also, please state whether you are lifted, leveled, or stock. Thanks

Patman- I love the look of our 01-03 Screws. It's just a bodystyle that I fell in love with when it came out back when I was a kid.

Haven't completely decided on wheels yet, but what would be a good tire for mud, snow, and highway driving. I want a tire with an agressive pattern, good cleanouts, and sidebiters. I drive pavement 85% of the time and 15% or more in the winter on snow, mud, and ice. I leveled my truck up, so I will be able to run 33's, I don't want to do any trimming or have much rubbing, but a little of both will be fine. I'm thinking of going with an 18inch rim. Also I don't want them to stick out much farther than the stock wheels and tires, so any recommendations on backspacing, rim size, and tire size would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys

I'm stuck between the XD Diesels in black/machined or chrome? I want 18 inch wheels. Which one will be better/ easier to keep looking good? I'm thinking the black/machined. But isn't there a company that sells a clear protective coating for chrome or polished wheels? It just goes on in a couple of coats and hardens and then you can just, wipe/wash mud and gunk off of them? What back spacing and size would I need?

I am going to go with Toyo Open Country M/T tires, what size do I need? For wheels they are going to be XD Diesel 18 X 9 with 5-135MM bolt spacing, 0 offset and backspacing is about 5inches. What are your guys' opinions on black, black/machined, or chrome wheels on my white screw? I am open to any opinions.
